I've got to say, I', buying into the binaltech reference idea. It really wouldn't make sense to me, that after all the effort Bay has gone through to distance himself from the G1 designs, that he's sell out like this on the sequel. If I had to make a bet, I'd say that they either use this in the scene where they intro Prowl (who I personally bet on being a police bike) or in some scene with a returned Barricade. Certainly not anything so unorginal as a straight homage. It'd just look stupid if Prowl was the only G1 Centric Autobot....The design aesthetic is completely.

Why would they not use a Buick (still a GM product) for Chinese car??? Note to Bay and Associates: the Chinese love Buicks and with may kick ass, Chinese Buick concepts to choose from, it would fit the "China" theme a lot better than the Chevy Malibu. It's a nit pick but the devil is in the details. The Chevy looks OK but is a bit bland.

it may or may not be prowl everyone thought prowl was barricade at first until he had decepticon logo on him with the name barricade, bumblebee all the fans thought he aws going to be volkswagon bettele car when they heard bumblebee was going to be in the first one but he turned out to be a camero and looked how that turned out.

could be prowl it may not could be an autobot with a decpeticon name or an autobobt with a deceticon name or someone entriley new to the roster. time will tell

So here's another rumor. We know the Decepticons may be adding another of their commanders to the lineup in some fashion, will the Autobots be doing the same?

View the pictures here and make your own guess as to who this might be, or is it just a simple background or human vehicle?Let the debates begin!

It would be nice if it was Prowl. Really, if you think about the classic 1984 G1 Autobots you could make a case that Prowl was the most important one of those characters who didn't make the first movie.

I do hope it is Prowl, for no other reason than it would make Cascadia do backflips of joy in the middle of the movie theater.

Someone a page or 2 ago mentioned how they weren't sure if the Bethlehem filming was supposed to be China, but according to the papers here (my store sellls the Allentown newspaper)the filming is done there to make it a "fictional Chinese city"
